> HttpClient built by HttpClientBuilder ends up with publicSuffixMatcher created by PublicSuffixMatcherLoader.getDefault(). Later on, this object gets passed to CookieSpecRegistries.createDefault(publicSuffixMatcherCopy), if the cookieSpecRegistry is not set explicitly.
> With this scenario, using simple host names (i.e. a name without a dot character, such as "server1" ) fails. 
> The reason seems to be the org.apache.http.impl.cookie.PublicSuffixDomainFilter.match(Cookie, CookieOrigin). This method returns a boolean indicating whether the domain is in the blacklist. 
> For any host name that is not a "localhost", the PublicSuffixMatcher.matches() is called, on line 76. This method returns true for any hostname that does not contain a dot charcter. Which causes the return false, on line 77. 
> Is this a correct behavior? If my server is called "server1", why should its name "match" a public suffix? And how do I make this code to recognize simple host names like this? If this is an expected behavior, is there a documented way to prevent it?
